Delta 14" metal cutting bandsaw

so demonstration of the old delta Milwaukee bandsaw with the back deer gearbox for metal cutting right now it's in direct drive for wood and plastics and such and it gets about 600 rpm on the big wheel on top which calculates to 2,200 feet per minute this is what the book says it should have the pulleys I just ordered from McMaster car they were not included with this unit when we got it and we've had it for the families had it for quite a while it's an old one from the school that quit have in shop class in order to run the back gear you have to take the belt off the direct drive shift the back gear lever up into position install belt on the step pulleys and I'll run them the belt down to the smallest to the slowest position first all right that's low gear [Music] this is too slow for my tachometer that I have to get an indication off of it that's as slow as it goes gearbox seems to be a little noisy it's been sitting dry for quite a while I just put oil in it for the first time since I've had it and surprised it's not leaking out all over the place but there's the next position well drag the bell to the next step on this model on this model the older ones you have to can only have one belt on it at times kind of obvious I think but the newer ones I guess you can leave the both belts on take it back out of back here just go ahead and take the belt off pull these around a little bit back to freewheeling slide the drive belt back on thanks for watching don't give me too hard to time about not unplugging it
